Titans QB Will Levis questionable to return after suffering right shoulder injury
u/alex •
Will Levis, the starting quarterback for the Titans, suffered a right shoulder injury during a game against the Miami Dolphins.
Why it matters: Levis' injury has raised concerns about the team's quarterback situation and their prospects for the season.
Levis injured his shoulder while diving for a first down in the first quarter of the game. Backup quarterback Mason Rudolph replaced him and led the team to three scoring drives.
- Coach Brian Callahan on Levis' availability: "If he can play, he'll go."
Yes, but: Levis attempted to throw on the sideline but experienced pain, indicating that the injury may be significant.
What to watch: The Titans will need to assess the severity of Levis' shoulder injury and determine if he can return to the game or if they will rely on Rudolph as their starting quarterback moving forward.
In addition to the injury, Levis had already been struggling this season, throwing six interceptions, tying him with Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson for the most in the NFL. He also leads the league in turnovers with nine (six interceptions, three fumbles).
What's next: The Titans medical staff will evaluate Levis' shoulder and determine the best course of action for his recovery and potential return to the field.
If Levis is unable to continue playing due to the injury, the team will heavily rely on backup quarterback Mason Rudolph to lead the offense.
The bottom line: The Titans' quarterback situation is uncertain as starting quarterback Will Levis suffers a shoulder injury, potentially impacting the team's performance and dynamics for the remainder of the season.
